I had to take a long flight after a manic episode. When I got to the baggage claim, I was exhausted from hours of no sleep and plomped down on some chairs to sleep. A security guy at the airport came to see what was up.
"She has Bipolar Disorder."
My Dad's explanation scared the security guy and he quickly left. If you need some alone time, telling people you have a mental illness is a good way to scare them away.
